Update from Tim Whitacre re lawsuit against OC GOP

by • May 10, 2006

The endorsment for Mike Carona isn’t solid yet.Tim Whitacre sent emails out that told his supporters and people in the media that his case would be heard starting on Monday, the 15th at 11 a.m. Whitacre wrote, Ã¢â‚¬Å“This stopped being about who you support for Sheriff and all about the rule of law.Ã¢â‚¬Â

DonÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t forget that Whitacre is the spokesperson for Bill Hunt, one of CaronaÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s opponents. With that said, I still think that Whitacre is doing the right thing by coming forward and calling out the folks in his own party that have manipulated and ignored established rule of law. Corruption wonÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t stop if you just sit by idly and let it happen.

In his column today, Frank Mickadeit wrote about hanging out with Whitacre yesterday and filing all the legal paperwork. Mickadeith confirmed that WhitacreÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s effort to get a temporary restraining order issued today was unsuccessful, but that the case will be heard by Superior Court Judge John Watson on Monday.
